The Board maintains a long-term perspective that includes ensuring that the Group's diverse portfolio incorporates compliance, best practices and a progressive mindset to uphold business resilience. Through its Sustainability and Risk Management Committee, the Board continues to oversee ESG strategy implementation and integration within business decisions and regularly reviews progress against targets. [...] As part of key organisational changes in February 2024, the Group integrated the oversight of risk management, sustainability and strategy functions for greater effectiveness and synergies. The newly formed Sustainability and Risk Committee – expanding from the previous Sustainability Steering Committee – aims to drive more holistic sustainability and risk management across the Group so as to enable more refined assessment of ESG risks and opportunities in business decisions. [...] Our ESG governance structure (page 13 of this Report) takes into account ongoing monitoring, management and oversight of climate-related risks and opportunities. In FY24, we took the following steps to bolster climate-related governance: - Established the Sustainability and Risk Committee (SRC) to drive an integrated approach towards strategy, sustainability and risk management, and support the Board's Sustainability and Risk Management Committee and Frasers Property Executive Leadership Team on the oversight of sustainability and risk management policies, practices and initiatives. More details on the SRC are on page 13 of this Report. - Aligned executive incentives to include climate-related responsibilities for our executive leadership whose remuneration is tied to targets. The specific metrics, their weighting within short-term and long-term incentive plans, and the percentage of total executive remuneration that are linked to ESG-related metrics vary across the organisation. - Conducted tailored climate-related training for the Board and senior leaders in conjunction with Melbourne Business School. More details on the training programme are on page 44 of this Report.
